What is the price per retreat?
DLTI and Isabella Freedman are committed to making this program sustainable and affordable. The cost per retreat is the total of tuition and lodging, so it varies depending upon the style of lodging you choose. Lodging options for each retreat start at $690 ($380 for camping) and go up to $2,280. These prices are current as of July 2026 and may increase by the time of this program. All rooms are clean, neat, comfortable, and the food is delicious "farm-to-table" kosher. Tuition per retreat week is $800, with some scholarship aid available for both. Travel costs are not included.
